About This Item
Synopsis
The American Heiress is a novel set during WWI by New Zealand writer Dorothy Eden. Eden was born in 1912, and by the 1980s was one of the best-selling novelists in the world. She published dozens of books, but The American Heiress was one of her last, as she died from breast cancer two years after it was published. The novel, a work of historical romance and mystery, is about an orphaned servant girl rescued from the sinking Lusitania, who assumes the role of her deceased heiress half-sister on her way to marrying a British Lord.
